Lower master clock frequency: While our D/A converter uses a high-speed 384-times oversampling frequency, it runs at a relatively low clock frequency of 16.9344 MHz. This minimizes the effect of jitter on sound quality and ensures better, clearer sound.

CONT

Horloge maîtresse basse fréquence. Bien que la fréquence d'échantillonnage soit 384 fois supérieure à la fréquence de base, l'horloge du convertisseur N/A n'est calée que sur 16,9344 MHz, valeur relativement faible. Il est possible, de cette manière, de limiter les effets de la gigue et d'obtenir ainsi des sonorités plus claires.
